One of my friends distributes/manufacturers alloy wheels and has recently had these made up in e30 fitment for a limited run.

Silver Centre

They are JWL/VIA (Japanese Type Approved) approved and made in Taiwan.

The 16" weigh 8.7 kgs. Have not weighed the 17"s yet but I think they will be less than 10 kgs because the 19"s in Audi fitment weigh 11 kgs.

They are available in 16x7 and 17x7.5 with polished outers and a choice of black or silver centres.

A set of 4 16" are £399 inc VAT add £175 for budget tyres and £329 for Dunlop Sport Maxx 205/50/16.
A set of 4 17" are £449 inc VAT add £190 for budget tyres and £329 for Dunlop SP 9000 215/40/17.

The above prices are wheels only.

We can offer limited wheel and tyre packages which I will post up later.

Postage is £30 or they can be collected from us in Luton if you want to save on postage.

Call us on 01582 573 801 to place an order.

Look Cool £100 per wheel seems good value, are they splits if so can you get different width outer dishes?

+1 on that. Is there a minimum order for e36 fitment?

I'm sure the e36 guys would be interested.

Thanks fuzzy, I didn't see that :roll:

Perhaps if there is a demand, then a supply can be organised.

I got a set of these off Evolve a few months ago... great looking wheels, It's a pity they can't be got in 16x8s though as 7s on the front and 8s on the back would look really cool.

nice looking wheel! shame about the sizes, 8x17 in ET20 would be niiiiice.
What's the caliper spoke clearance like? Looking really flat on the pictures, so will the clear 4 pot brakes nice? Are the 4 lug or 5 lug?

Haven't fitted them yet but going from rough measurements and test fitting by just holding the calipers in place, my Brembo GT 4pots fit snugly in the 16"s with roughly a 312mm discs :wink:

They are about 500 euro delivered.

Have a few silver sets in stock at the moment as far as I know :wink:

Just wish they would make a set of 8s so I could have the staggered look at the back 8)
Who knows... I might stick two up on the lathe sometime and extend the dish abit winkeye

I like them, quality is good too as they are bloody strong after not being able to avoid some severe potholes with cars coming the other way :(

What S50 winkeye

I don't really like the idea of more people getting them in Ireland though as I liked being the only one with LMs even if they are reps :D

But if you really want them, give them a ring as they are a nice wheel :wink:

Sorry I didn't reply ealier have a s50b30 in my 316i nerly ready for the road ordered coilovers from rpm for it, have to get some decent anti roll bars and have to sort the rest of the exhaust system. have the manifolds done and one of the lads has a ac m3 backbox with pipe work for me so all I have to do is make up a centre silencer and join it up at the rate i'm going will probably take me another year been very slow progress.

I have T1rs on mine in 205/45 R16 which I think is a better profile for looks.
